Embassy Row
Just west of Dupont Circle lies the biggest concentration of the city's 150 international embassies. Many of them are housed along Massachusetts Avenue in grand Beaux-Art mansions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The terminus of Embassy Row is at the US Naval Observatory, whose grounds include the Vice President's residence and the atomic clock, which keeps the official time for the country.
